Text description provided by the architects. Na Mata Café is a traditional restaurant and concert venue in São Paulo, Brazil. Soon after starting this project, we found out that the venue was packed with much more history than we had originally expected: before becoming Na Mata Café, it was the bar called Popular, and prior to this, in the 1970’s, it was the well-known Clyde’s bar. There are even those who say that the original construction was a project by Vilanova Artigas; however, this fact still remains unproved.
